The BMA is the Baptist Missionary Association and it is a great group of churches. I am very familiar with them and hope my mistake in the order of their intitials did not confuse you. Thanks and may the Lord bless you and guide you.

BMA baptists are baptists that do a lot of charity work and are mostly considered "southern baptists" because majority of them live in texas. Closed communion is something that is practiced by religions (including Baptists) that beleive you shouln't take communion unless you are a member of that particular church.
